The Moon has been a subject of awe and fascination for millennia, with its shape-shifting powers and enigmatic dark side. And though it’s the one celestial body on which man has taken (small) steps, we still have big leaps to go in understanding its potential and uncovering its secrets. However, one hidden feature of the Moon has been unearthed by scientists and it’s very, very big, and very, very heavy. Buried beneath its South Pole-Aitken basin – one of the largest preserved craters in the Solar System – is a structure which weighs at least 2.18 billion kilogrammes and measures more than 300km (186 miles) in depth and 2,000km (1,243 miles) in length.

"One of the explanations of this extra mass is that the metal from the asteroid that formed this crater is still embedded in the Moon's mantle,” lead author Peter B. James, from Houston’s Baylor University, said in a statement shared with IFLScience. Illustrating just how gigantic this thing is, he went on: "Imagine taking a pile of metal five times larger than the Big Island of Hawaii and burying it underground. That's roughly how much unexpected mass we detected.” The groundbreaking finding was made thanks to NASA’s Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission, which measures changes in the Moon’s gravitational field. Data collected by GRAIL can then be used to study the internal composition of our cratered companion. The South Pole-Aitken Basin has been at the centre of numerous investigations because of just how unique it is. The region offers clues both on the interior composition of our closest satellite and its history, and who knows what other mysteries it holds... Have your say in our news democracy.

Modern dating can sometimes feel like the Wild West, with apps making it easier for people to connect and providing the internet with a never ending flow of bizarre stories. One woman recently went viral after explaining her date ditched her after ordering 48 oysters and leaving her with a huge bill. Another ended up finding the wedding website of the man she had been dating for six weeks on Google. It seems the terrible dating experiences are never ending, as TikToker Chloee (@chloeemlindsay) has gone viral after sharing her date’s “outrageous” message claiming that he wishes she had less “less self-respect” so he could date her. In the video, which has been viewed more than 3 million times, Chloee shared a screenshot of the baffling message sent to her by a Hinge date. They wrote: “Quite honestly I think I need someone with a little less self respect lmaoo.” The message continued, with the guy claiming that she had her “s*** together” and essentially admitting that, because of this, she was too much effort for him. He continued: “A girl with less confidence and standards doesn’t know she isn’t being treated ‘right’ or not because she will just have whatever affection she can get (meaning I can give less effort. Not in a malicious way but yeah) and obviously you’re not like that.” In the comments, people couldn’t quite believe their eyes and that the man actually admitted to it. One sarcastic commenter wrote: “We love a self aware king.” Another said: “That text belonged in a THERAPY SESSION.” Someone else commented: “So they DO know!?!?!? THE WHOLE TIME!?!?” “Ohh?? my?? God??” another baffled TikToker said. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter How to join the indy100's free WhatsApp channel Have your say in our news democracy.

NEUCHATEL, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 9, 2023--

Leigh Wood and Chris Billam-Smith enjoyed successful evenings against familiar foes on Saturday, winning world titles in their respective fights. Wood avenged a knockout loss to Mauricio Lara by outpointing the Mexican in Manchester, regaining the WBA featherweight title that he lost in the pair’s first clash. Meanwhile, Billam-Smith was a decision victor over former sparring partner Lawrence Okolie, winning the WBO cruiserweight title at the stadium that is home to his beloved AFC Bournemouth. Wood, 34, was fighting in his hometown of Nottingham when he lost the WBA featherweight belt to Lara in February, as the Mexican won with a controversial TKO in Round 7. However, Lara was stripped of the title on Friday (26 May) after failing to make weight for his rematch with Wood, who was the only fighter eligible to win the gold in Saturday’s main event. And Wood, who was leading his first fight with Lara at the time of the stoppage, got out ahead of the 25-year-old again in Manchester. This time, though, the Briton was able to stay composed throughout, earning a unanimous-decision win (118-109, 118-109, 116-111). Meanwhile, at Vitality Stadium – home to Premier League club Bournemouth – Billam-Smith won a scrappy majority decision against Okolie to claim his first world title. Billam-Smith, in front of a raucous home crowd, knocked down his ex-sparring partner three times, while Okolie also had two points docked for excessive holding. It all led to scorecards of 112-112, 116-107, 115-108 in favour of Billam-Smith. “The Gentleman” then dedicated the win to his mother, who is suffering from breast cancer, and his son, who turned one year old on Friday. Elsewhere, Michael Conlan did not have such a happy homecoming. The Northern Irishman, fighting in his hometown of Belfast, was stopped by Luis Alberto Lopez in the fifth round. Mexican Lopez dropped Conlan with a vicious uppercut, and the towel came in as Conlan struggled to find his bearings.
